Chapter 1119: Chapter 639 Surface God Kingdom_3

The Conqueror Army took the opportunity to escape the monster rout, but this feigned charge brought catastrophic disaster to the collapsing monster forces as the ethereal shadows of the Far Sea Marsh surged in great numbers.

"Get away, all of you get away from me... Ah..."

"I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die, get away from me..."

"You think it’s that easy to kill me? I’ve run so hard to get here, Fireball Technique..."

"Die, all of you die..."

The cornered monster rout, once again, sparked what little ferocity remained, lifting their weapons to launch a frenzied attack on the misty phantoms with predictable results. The phantoms composed of mist passed unscathed through the sharpest of swords, leaving no one sure if any real damage was done, as those misty phantoms could make no sound. They simply surged forward, and any wounds inflicted by blades healed in an instant.

Fireball Technique and other magic spells did have quite impressive effects. It was unclear if they killed the misty phantoms, but where the fireballs landed, the mist—including the phantoms—was swept away, clearing a not insignificant area.

However, what followed still brought despair, an endless mist quickly covered the area, and the souls of countless collapsing monsters were forcibly pulled from their bodies, then corrupted by the mist, transformed into new ethereal shadows.

The situation resembled a snowball, with the numbers of phantoms increasing, the speed of corruption accelerating, and in no time, the greater part of the monster rout was submerged. Only those on the outskirts, hysterically screaming, fled towards the distance. They had been driven mad by the consecutive assaults, as if the entire world was maliciously targeting them.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless mist tentacles shot out, piercing through those disintegrating monsters.

These mist tentacles had no physical destructive power; the monsters pierced by them remained physically intact, but numerous misty arms stretched out from the tentacles, firmly clutching the monsters’ souls.

These monsters fell to the ground while running, turning into mere corpses, their souls having been brutally torn out by the mist tentacles.

Due to their proximity, Gaven and Katherine in the sky were also attacked by the mist tentacles, and although Gaven really wanted to give a blow to the mist tentacle that targeted him, to test the effect on him, given that the attack was on the soul level and the mist itself had no offensive power—the offensive ones were those ethereal phantoms that very much resembled ghosts and shadows, just composed not of negative energy, but of ether energy.

Inside the War Ravager, there was not only the Undead Divine Spark but also the Planning Plunder divine nature that Lady Strategy had just received. Maybe it could directly plunder these ethereal phantoms.

For safety reasons, Gaven ultimately suppressed his urge to attack. The Far Sea Marsh wasn’t going anywhere; there would be plenty of opportunities to test things later. It wasn’t necessary to do so when the enemy was at its strongest. By now, the enemy had absorbed anywhere from eight to ten thousand souls. If this mist merely acted on instinct, it would be one thing, but if it had a unified ruling consciousness, then acting this way would be akin to stirring up a hornet’s nest, drawing their attention onto himself.

The attack speed of these mist tentacles was not particularly fast; they couldn’t keep up with Gaven and Katherine’s flight speed, and it was clear that they had a limited range. After extending out more than two hundred meters, they didn’t stretch any further.

Their relentless soul plundering wasn’t targeted at any individual; lacking specific hatred for Gaven and Katherine, they redirected their focus as soon as they realized they couldn’t reach them.

A preliminary estimate meant less than one-third of those monsters could escape. The remaining two-thirds would be thoroughly retained by the mist of the Far Sea Marsh—that was 20,000 souls. The number of souls harvested by Lady Strategy in her Ascension Battle was roughly the same, and ultimately Gaven and Lady Strategy each took half. Even if the quality was lacking, the quantity was undeniably present before them. Unexpectedly, the Far Sea Marsh would now consume an easy meal.

"In the short term, keep your people away from the Far Sea Marsh. Swallowing so many souls at once, this place isn’t simply a large domain anymore. It’s become a veritable Surface God Kingdom, far from something ordinary people can contend with. If their abilities are restrained, even a deity incarnation would have a hard time gaining any advantage here." Katherine solemnly warned, "Don’t count on using an army to take down the Far Sea Marsh. This direct attack on the soul is just too lethal for ordinary soldiers."

"Understood." Gaven nodded, indicating he took her point.

The current situation in the Far Sea Marsh was much the same as at Weizemay Manor.

Only the negative energy that filled Weizemay Manor was replaced by ether energy, and the shadows created by the infusion of negative energy into souls had turned into ethereal phantoms formed by the infusion of ether energy.

If an army like the monster rout were to attack Weizemay Manor, their fate would be identical to what occurred here. The soul consciousness of the invaders would become prisoners of Weizemay Manor, and in a blink, they would turn into Weizemay forces, turning to attack their former comrades.

However, compared to the nascent Weizemay Manor, the power hidden within the Far Sea Marsh mist was even mightier, having harvested the soul consciousness of innumerable lives from the Far Sea Marsh.
